Avocado Seeds, thread
16' x 4' x 3.5'

For this installation piece I wanted to create a feeling of sacredness using a humble material. Each bird is carved from an avocado seed. The shavings lay on the floor, like cast off eggshells or bones, forming the nest for the next generation.  Life and death are constantly feeding into one another, always in a perfect cycle.
